  1 The number of workers represented by the survey are rounded to the nearest 100. Estimates of the number of workers
provide a description of size and composition of the labor force included in the survey. Estimates are not intended,
however, for comparison to other statistical series to measure employment trends or levels. 
  2 A classification system including about 800 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian
economy. See appendix B for more information.
